Help me draft a story about the origins of Paw Patrol that tries to address the logical problems with the show. Problems like: talking dogs; incompetent humans; advanced technology that the dogs use but out dated technology that humans use; very small number of people who need a highly advanced group to help them. Some possible ideas relate to humanity reaching a high level of technological advancement and creating android dogs which can speak and do lots of things. There being a disaster that left much of humanity dumber than before. And groups like paw patrol were formed by the android pets and the remaining self aware humans to help humanity survive. Please start with a draft of the first page.

In the wake of the 21st century, humanity had reached the zenith of technological advancement. Artificial intelligence was not just a companion to the human race; it was an architect of a new era. Among its myriad creations were the Canis Sapiens - a generation of android dogs designed to aid, protect, and serve.

These marvels of engineering were the pinnacle of AI's benevolence, gifted with the power of speech, empathy, and an intellect that bridged the gap between man and machine. They walked alongside their creators, a testament to a world thriving on the symbiosis of organic and synthetic life.

But then came the Event.

No one recalls the precise nature of the Event – a cataclysmic occurrence that left much of the human population with a vastly reduced mental capacity. Technology regressed in the aftermath, as humanity's ability to comprehend and maintain the advanced systems they once created diminished. The world, once a bustling network of hyperconnectivity and digital landscapes, reverted to a simpler, more fragmented state.

Amidst this new world, a small, idyllic town known as Adventure Bay seemed almost untouched by the cataclysm. However, the people within were a mirror of the greater change. The once capable and self-sufficient citizens now exhibited a child-like dependence on external aid for even the most mundane of tasks.

It was here that the Canis Sapiens, led by a particularly astute specimen named Ryder, found their purpose. Ryder, unlike his human companions, retained the full scope of his programmed knowledge and abilities. He remembered the world that once was and recognized the need for guidance and assistance in this new one.

With the help of his fellow android dogs, each equipped with specialized abilities and gear, Ryder formed the Paw Patrol. This group was a beacon of hope, a reminder of the heights from which humanity had fallen, and a guidepost for a potential return. The dogs, with their advanced technology, served not just as rescuers but as custodians of the past, preserving the remnants of human ingenuity within their own designs.

As Ryder looked out from his high-tech lookout tower, he mused over the path that lay ahead. His team was ready, a motley crew of mechanical canines eager to lend a paw. They were the guardians of Adventure Bay, the torchbearers of humanity's lost brilliance, and the humble servants of a society that had once dreamed of stars but now gazed in wonder at the simple flicker of a candle.

"The Paw Patrol is on a roll," Ryder declared, as the first call for help crackled through the radio. And so, the story began.
